About the Film
Margot Zeller, a savagely bright, razor-tongued writer who creates chaos wherever she goes, sets off on a surprise journey to the wedding of her estranged and free-spirited, easy-going sister Pauline. Margot arrives at her sister’s house with the gale force of a hurricane. From the minute she meets Pauline’s fiancé-an unemployed artist-Margot starts to plant seeds of doubt about the marriage. As the wedding approaches, one complication crashes into the next creating a comedy of searing insight and originality.
Frequently brilliant…mercilessly, squirm-inducingly funny. – A.O. Scott, the New York Times
